The pelican is at Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach. Not sure about the dolphin.
That is probably correct they visited at least three different piers in three different communities. The Dolphin picture right after the Pelican with no information. Thanks for help guys ! Dan

Galveston Bay last month, my 14-year grand-daughter
was recruited to fill the last vacancy on a guided fishing trip
with her father, uncle and 20-year old cousin, Jonathan.
She showed up the boys and caught the biggest fish.

We all enjoyed the shark steaks and shark cakes.
She used a Delica I had given her
to remove the jaws and eyes.

Caught this fellow in the grass last week. Speckled Kingsnake. He was pretty feisty at first, but once I picked him up and let him move freely around on my hand and arm he calmed right down. I've seen bigger - this one was probably about 3 feet long.

Here’s a little Stinkpot (Musk Turtle) that I found while fishing yesterday. It was hiding on a clump of grass floating at the surface.

Rafter? Hadn’t heard that one. Some crazy names for groups of critters though. Murder of crows…
